I JUST FREAKIN LOVE HOW THEY ARE ALWAYS SO CLOSE TO EACH OTHER WHEN THEY SING! IT'S LIKE HER VOICE VIBRATES OFF HIS GUITAR AND IT JUST MESHES IN ALL THE RIGHT WAY......
@Proverber @BMoney985 hopefully we can get a better recording at some point. the mic was sitting next to John Paul's guitar, which is why the guitar is so loud and the vocals are lower. we still wanted folks to hear & see this performance though! thanks for the feedback.
To pretend no one can find The fallacies of morning rose Forbidden fruit, hidden eyes Courtesies that I despise in me Take a ride, take a shot now 'Cause nobody loves me It's true Not like you do Covered by the blind belief That fantasies of sinful screens Bear the facts, assume the dye End the vows, no need to lie, enjoy Take a ride, take a shot now 'Cause nobody loves me It's true Not like you do Who am I, what and why? 'Cause all I have left is my memories of yesterday Oh these sour times 'Cause nobody loves me It's true Not like you do After time the bitter taste Of innocence, decent or race Scattered seeds, buried lives Mysteries of our disguise revolve Circumstance will decide ... 'Cause nobody loves me It's true Not like you do 'Cause nobody loves me It's true Not like you do. Nobody loves. me It's true Not like you. do
Um John Doe, nobody cares what you think, their dynamics and the feeling of the song...it's a perfect cover.. I'm lead musician in a cover band, and dealing with covers, this is phenomenal. Civil wars, please come back! Keep up the good work!!
to The Dude, I think that's intentional - it makes it sound more like the original, plus she's got that subtle effect on her voice which was also in the Portishead version. I actually really dig it!
I really think thats why they broke up. someone confessed..or the spouses just had enough. i mean it mustve been really hard on her husband.hes the manager.
This song, never thought anyone would remake it, and remake it so beautifully. On the contrary, I believe she 'feels' her music, whatever music she's singin. They move and away together, a musicians point of view would be that they definitely 'mesh'. They freestyle harmonize together, amazing.
These two, together, are visually and audibly the epitome of sexy. I don't know how else to put it. If they work things out or not the music and videos they have made will haunt me (in the best kind of way) as long as I live. I love their commitment to their families, but how I wish they would just get together. They make me think soulmates can exist.
This is exquisite. The audience in Dublin when they first performed this song live went crazy. It was a blast. This should definitely go on the next album.
I am from NY, Puertorican meaning that i was not very familiar with this type of muisic BUT MY GOD I AM SO HAPPY I FOUND YOU GUYS ARE BAD ASS!!! this is good muisic! fan for life
I always find myself getting lost in any song by The Civil Wars. They're all so intimate and it's like instead of listening with my ears, I'm listening with my soul... If that makes sense? :)

They never should have broken up
*cries softly to self*
speakofcommonsense I'm crying too
Their chemistry is INSANE!!!!! It's just so intense and magnetic- watching them perform together is like a religious experience...
I already loved Civil Wars, then found this gem.
Portishead is one of my all time favorite bands.
Seriously, this cover is everything!
dito
i love how intense everything gets when they start singing, taking all the air out of the room and all the noise replaced with their beautiful voices.
ding ding ding
either they need to get together romantically or they will not last. too much chemistry for their spouses to not lose their minds.
Wow, you were right
The way she is looking at him... my god. You can't fake that chemistry.

2022 and still missing these two
I am glad someone +1ed this old post. I had forgotten about it. Such a great cover. They did the original great justice!
Them not being together is like one of those crazy romance novels where you want them to be soo bad, but you and they know it can't happen.
When they sing, it's like they are one. They move together. It's haunting and wonderful!
These two are so fucking weird, I love them for that.
shes such a stunner
I absolutely adore there version of the song!
2023 and missing them even more especially after hearing them on Taylor Swift’s re-recording of Safe & Sound ❤️💔
Still love it. Absolutely.
Their chemistry is so unique.
love love love Joy.....
Its cool how there voices combine to sound like the original.
She is so sultry. I could listen to this song on repeat forever.
please don't be over. its just too perfect.
Miss you two
To pretend no one can find
The fallacies of morning rose
Forbidden fruit, hidden eyes
Courtesies that I despise in me
Take a ride, take a shot now
'Cause nobody loves me
It's true
Not like you do
Covered by the blind belief
That fantasies of sinful screens
Bear the facts, assume the dye
End the vows, no need to lie, enjoy
Take a ride, take a shot now
'Cause nobody loves me
It's true
Not like you do
Who am I, what and why?
'Cause all I have left is my memories of yesterday
Oh these sour times
'Cause nobody loves me
It's true
Not like you do
After time the bitter taste
Of innocence, decent or race
Scattered seeds, buried lives
Mysteries of our disguise revolve
Circumstance will decide ...
'Cause nobody loves me
It's true
Not like you do
'Cause nobody loves me
It's true
Not like you do.
Nobody loves. me
It's true
Not like you. do

OH! I LOVE Portishead...they just went right up ther with them! AWESOME!!!
I swear they love each other
Enchanting is right!!! Lost all through it!!! I love anything they do!!!!!! It's like rushing warm water over a thirsty desert!! Healing!
yeah i love the way joy sings, 'the winding roads that lay me here', just something about the way she sings it gets me
Couldn´t be any better than this!!!
to The Dude, I think that's intentional - it makes it sound more like the original, plus she's got that subtle effect on her voice which was also in the Portishead version. I actually really dig it!
I love how Joy says "For cryin' out loud".
Really I just love both of them.
The Civil Wars!
LOVE this rendition!!
Joy is so... Intuned with John Paul when he sings and he's the same withbher, I can't get enough
gosh, undeniable and beautiful chemistry!
I really think thats why they broke up. someone confessed..or the spouses just had enough. i mean it mustve been really hard on her husband.hes the manager.
I enjoy how absorbed both of them always get while performing.
Last year I saw both Portishead AND The Civil Wars - both class acts!!!
beautiful voices,so simple but just stunning
Your music is helping me get through a very tough break up, you sing what I feel, and It is just inspiring and comforting. Thank you
They're just so......amazing. Hands down.
fow flow flow..just flows. missing you two . terribly.
They're beautiful. Listen to the audio though. They sound better.
makes perfect sense that is the way music is supposed to effect you
Civil Wars? Portishead? Love!!!
Love this group, wish they'd come to Texas.
The Civil Wars can do no wrong. I adore them more with each new performance.
actually stunning, their passion and amazing talent
the way they used to look at eachother...
Wow, love this song. Love this band even more.
The way Joy simple stares at John Paul when he starts singing the second verse is just beautiful.
This song, never thought anyone would remake it, and remake it so beautifully. On the contrary, I believe she 'feels' her music, whatever music she's singin. They move and away together, a musicians point of view would be that they definitely 'mesh'. They freestyle harmonize together, amazing.
everything they do is pure magic.
These two, together, are visually and audibly the epitome of sexy. I don't know how else to put it.
If they work things out or not the music and videos they have made will haunt me (in the best kind of way) as long as I live.
I love their commitment to their families, but how I wish they would just get together. They make me think soulmates can exist.
Everytime they do a cover, The Civil Wars blow the original song away! This is so great!
This is exquisite. The audience in Dublin when they first performed this song live went crazy. It was a blast. This should definitely go on the next album.
PORTISHEAD COVER. AMAZINGGGGG!!!!
All time cover. ❤
Of course it makes sense. That's the definition of real music my friend. That's the only kind of music you should listen to!
Despite the kinda poor quality, at least we still get to experience Joy's breathtaking beauty!
love it!!!! one of my favorite covers by them!!
They are so in sync with each other.
Beautiful.
wow even Portishead..i just love you guys! =)
I love this tune...and love to hear the two of you sing it. Well done!
Thank you!!!
Blessings, Leah
ahhh they need to put this song on itunes!!!!
I miss them💔
FAVORITE SONG EVER.
What a great rendition of a great song! I am sure Portishead is proud!
You two are so beautiful, vocally, physically and the joyous energy you exude is just breathtaking to watch :)
This is crazy..I heard Marsha Ambrosius's cover of this song first, and now my mind is blown.
They always do the nicest covers.
@TheCivilWars IT'S BRILLIANT!
I like how it sounds. More enchanting :)
beautiful
Excellent.
your voices are very haunting. in such a good way. relaxing. powerful. theres so much feeling.
Love LOVE love it!!!

I NEED A NEW ALBUM, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!!!
This is real music!
Amazing.. thank you.... Portishead really? Wow.. Out of left field and you knocked it out of the park.
Didn't blink for 3 minutes and 11 seconds. Only The Civil Wars could make me forget what I was doing in the first place.
LOVE.
Everything about this is amazing.
